Correspondents should bear in mind
that what a newspaper wants is the
news-faithful and accurate reports OF
passing events-not jokes and slurs cal
culated to wound the feelings of inno-
cent persons, nor puffs for men in bu-
siness.
The pastors of the Methodist, Presby-
terrain and Congregational churches are
working together to wipe out the sa-
looms at Marysville, the county seat of
Union county. 1t is a general opinion
that if the question is put to a vote that
it will carry. There are at present
about Is saloons in that place.

No wonder doctors shingles are be-
coming SO alarmingly plenty. Statis-
tics tell us that the number of physi-
clans increase four and a half per cent.
annually, while the population only
two per cent. in the same time. At this
rate every family will SOC have a pill

Progressive dinners are the latest.
The gentlemen change their seats after
each course and the lady by whom they
are sitting when the dinner ends is the
recipient of their attention for the re-
mainder of the evening. Favors, we
presume, are given to the least and big
gest eaters.
1t is said that if mustard be mixed with the
white of an egg, instead of water, a plaster
may be made which will draw thoroughly
without blistering.-EI.
No, no. Give us something that will
draw like a mule team and blister like
sheol. We want to apply it to some
who have been taking the DEMOCRAT
for from four to eight years and won't
pay any attention to a dun.
Ed. Lugar and Barney Huffman have
opened a new and very large imple-
ment establishment on Cherry street, a
few doors north of Main street, where
they will keep on hand the celebrated
S%tudebaker farm wagon, the most pop
ular and noted Harvesters and Binders,
together with a general variety of first
class farm implements. Drop in and
look around before you purchase and
see how you like their assortment.
Our. young friend Charles Ressler has
his new enterprise in good running or
der, and is turning out some splendid
work. We have other young men in
Eaton who might follow the good ex-
ample set by MI. Ressler. There are
d number of articles that can and ought
to be manufactured in our town, in
stead of paying tribute to other towns
for what should be done at home.

John F. Lugar and George Lugar
are making preparations to erect a
large two story brick factory on the
old Cunningham property, ON the west
side of Barron street, opposite the court
house, for the purpose of manufactur-
ing sash, doors, blinds and house furn-
ishing material generally. The Lugar
boys are ranked among our best and
most e%nterprising mechanics and should
be properly encouraged.
A new Justice of the Peace in his first
charge to the jury said Gentlemen of
the jury: If you believe what the law
yer for the plaintiff has said, you will
give the verdict for the plaintiff. If
you believe what the lawyer for the de-
PENDANT has said, you will give the ver-
dict for the defendant. If you are like
me and don't believe what either of
them said, I'll be- if 1 know what
you will do. Take the case"
Henry Huxley while at work last
week papering the rooms in the Odd
Fellows building, to be occupied by
Rhea 6 Son, fell from a step ladder,
breaking his right arm at the elbow
and otherwise bruising himself consid-
cradle. 1t is a very unfortunate occur
renee, not only to Mr.. Huxley, but to
our community, as his mechanical ge-
MUS in his line of work can hardly be
dispensed with at this season of the
year.
